[quote=Anonymous]My son’s school cancelled classes on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday. With the first asynchronous day being Thursday.   It’s ver clear work is assigned on asynchronous days.

However, a couple teachers made assignment due on Monday.  One of them posted a message about it but by the time my son saw it, it was already late and the teacher is indicating she’s marking it late (10% off) per day it was “late” so each day the school was closed and classes were cancelled!  Not just by the next held class.  This doesn’t seem reasonable or fair.  Nothing in the school’s policy addresses this and nothing in the communication from the school indicated students needed to be checking for assignments due while school was closed.

The other teacher just said it was due “next class”, and class was not held on Monday but it’s showing as not turned in /incomplete already.

None of the other teachers did this.

Should I talk to my son’s counselor?  I’m very sure the first teacher won’t budge but this seems really ridiculous and punitive.  By this measure, the teacher could make something due on a holiday or over break.  [/quote]
